title: [The efficiency of a brief support intervention for anxiety, depression and stress after miscarriage].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The object of this study is to create and put into place a psychological support intervention including three components (support, educational and cognitive) for women who have suffered a miscarriage.
  
  
  METHODS
  One hundred and thrity-four women participated in the study: 66 composed the "immediate intervention" group (II) and 68 the "differed intervention" (DI) group. All participants completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Impact of Events Scale-Revised (IES-R) and the Texas Grief Inventory (TGI) at 3 and 10 weeks as well as 6 months following study enrollment.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Results at 3 weeks show a significant difference between the groups for both anxiety and event impact.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In terms of prevention, the brief early intervention tested in this study appears to be particularly pertinent following miscarriage.
